How to get things done when depressed?

...See more I feel like my depression is making it really difficult for me to complete tasks on time. As a student I have a hard time being productive, and I always lack the energy to even get started. I often feel like I am too dumb or slow to write an essay, or too tired or lazy to get started with tasks. Sometimes even thinking itself feels difficult. How does everyone cope with this?

...See more I can't do anything right. The moment I start overthinking a certain task, it becomes painfully difficult. There's nothing meaningful about my life. I'm tired of performing everyday tasks like getting up, brushing my hair, eating, etc. just for the sake of doing it. I went through pretty messed up stuff recently which has made me question everything. It was traumatic and probably destroyed all of my self-esteem, sense of purpose - basically anything good or positive about my life. And now I'm on a path of self-destruction. I go to therapy but it isn't doing anything for me. It's just another "thing to do." Everything I do I manage to fail at it. There's no point. Just wanted to vent. I don't have any friends so posting this seems about the only option.

...See more I am a grad student in the humanities. I don't know what exactly triggered my depression, but I'm experiencing a lot of cognitive problems like memory issues, lack of concentration, inability to be intellectually engaged, etc. I just feel like a totally different person, and I just can't tackle academic tasks like I used to. It's like my brain has stopped working somehow, and everything i write is not up to par. It's really interfering with my academic life at this point and none of my professors know about it. I'm really scared that I'll end up failing classes. Does anyone else have similar experiences?
